Geeeeeeeeeeez I waited wayyyy too long. I uploaded this chapter way before I believed it was ready but I believed I had to since I kept you readers waiting too long. Like four months? I'm really sorry. Luckily summer is approaching very slowly for me so once that comes I can upload things a lot faster. This chapter may seem short but like I said that's because of me rushing and hurrying to upload it. Anyway hope you enjoy it and continue to read even after that wait!
The team entered the hospital where Cindy and her father were in. They got a few weird looks from the workers and a few people in there alike since no one in Retroville had ever seen a sponge like this before, walking and talking. Spongebob waved at them with a warm smile, "Hi!"
Jimmy was the first to walk into the room where Cindy was.
"Jimmy!" She exclaimed. She rushed up and nearly squeezed the life out of him.
"Cindy!" He said out of breath. "I can't breathe."
Cindy quickly let go of him, "Sorry.."
She searched Jimmy's body for any wounds.
"I'm fine." Jimmy reassured.
"No! There was an explosion! I heard it!" Cindy said.
"Yeah there was, but none of us got harmed thankfully." Jimmy replied.
Someone barged into the room suddenly. "Cindy, I got Jimmy's message is everything ok?!" The other Jimmy asked.
"I forgot you weren't at the dance. Where were you again?" Cindy asked.
"One: I figured people would freak out from having two Jimmy's in one spot, and Two: I made more antidotes for Jimmy." The other Jimmy explained.
"Wait antidotes?" Timmy asked.
"Yeah remember when I told you I turned into a orange rage monster?" Jimmy asked.
Timmy nodded in response, "Well these little doses are what help suppress him or it, during stages of stress and rage." Jimmy stated.
Timmy gave him a surprised look, "I'm kind of eager to see this orange rage monster!"
"Yeah not such a good idea." Aamir added.
"I agree, now can we please move back to the dimension-man topic?" The other Jimmy asked.
"The dimension-man? Is that what we're calling him?" Timmy asked chuckling.
"Timmy come on this is serious." Spongebob said.
"Yeah I know! On threat level this guy is set to max! He would have disintegrated Danny!" Timmy said.
"Not true, I could've phased through it.." Danny interrupted unsure.
"Danny you didn't even see it coming. How would you phase through something you don't see coming?" Timmy asked.
Danny sighed knowing he was right.
"This is strange. The weapons this guy is using is the highest grade of weaponry at its finest. Not even our military has this. How could he possess such advanced lethals?" Jimmy questioned.
"He's probably from a more advanced world." Spongebob said.
"That would explain the robot army, and that weapon he hit Aamir with all those months ago." Jimmy said.
"I think it was some sort of chain, or metal whip that was broken apart a bit to increase damage." Aamir cut in.
"Or possibly aerodynamics." Jimmy added.
"The Dark King had a robot army. What's so different from this one?" Norvice asked.
"They were stronger, faster, more intelligent than his." Jimmy stated.
"Also I don't know if anyone remembered but I do recall he called them Apoco-bots?" Jimmy added.
"Ok and?" Timmy asked.
Jimmy turned to the Other Jimmy, "Do you remember seeing those robots in your world before the outbreak?"
The Other Jimmy nodded, "Yes but the first thing they went after was our military. After they reduced them to nothing they just left. Then the zombie apocalypse started from odd bacteria."
Jimmy scratched his head, "I think we need to pay him a visit soon."
Everyone looked at him like he was crazy. "Are you crazy?!" Norvice asked.
"We almost had him the last time! I used Timmy's powers to damage him!" Jimmy explained.
"It's not the fact that my powers are strong like that it's the fact that they're magic. That's why it pierced through his armor." Timmy stated.
"Ok well whatever we can still do it." Jimmy claimed.
"Not when he has those Apoco-bots on his side." Aamir spoke up.
"Jimmy, you can't fight him." Cindy said.
Jimmy turned to her with a confused look, "Why?"
"I worry about you whenever you do these things. You barely made it out alive the last time you fought him. What if I don't see you the next time you leave to fight him?" Cindy asked.
Jimmy thought about it for a moment. "You will see me, Cindy. I have these guys to make sure of that." Jimmy gestured to the team.
"I'm sorry but I don't care!" Cindy slightly yelled.
Everyone was startled from her outburst.
"He won't go with you! My Dad got hurt by this man and could've died!" Cindy stated.
Jimmy held Cindy by the shoulders, "Cindy we're the only people who can stop him. We don't have any other choice. I promise you I'll come back to see you."
Cindy shook her head, "No, no. You'll die if you go."
"I've been through worse, Cindy. Trust me I really hate to be away from you like this but I have to go, they need me." Jimmy said.
"But you have a duplicate that can fill in for you." Cindy stated pointing at the other Jimmy.
"I'm not really a duplicate but more of a different version." The other Jimmy also stated.
Danny nudged him, "Not the time." He whispered.
Jimmy shook his head, "Cindy, wouldn't you do the same if you were in my shoes?"
Cindy shrugged, "Not if I had a doppelganger from another dimension that could take my spot."
Jimmy sighed. He looked back at the guys to contemplate his answer. Then he looked Cindy in the eyes. He shortly gave into her irresistible pleading face. "Ok fine, I'll stay."
"Thank you!" Cindy said hugging him. "Jimmy, you'll have to lead the team for now until I come back." Jimmy said.
The other Jimmy nodded, "Well in that case we'll get started on our mission." He lead the team out of the room, but Timmy stayed behind for a moment. He put a hand on Jimmy's shoulder, "Don't be gone too long."
"No promises." Cindy interrupted.
"We need him just as much as you do." Timmy replied with a smirk. He walked out and followed the rest of the team.
"I hope we aren't going to the dimension-man's home or whatever to invade tomorrow?" Danny asked.
"No that idea is crazy. However we will be prepping for going there another time. Right now we need to strategize." The other Jimmy said.
Danny nodded.
Timmy ran next to the other Jimmy, "So what's the plan, Jim?"
"The plan, Timothy. Is that we wait it out and think strategically about it." The other Jimmy replied.
Timmy turned to Danny, "Did he just call me Timothy?" Danny nodded.
Aamir hovered over the three in mid-air in a laid back position. "Soooo sit back and wait for another attack on Retro?"
"Possibly. We shouldn't go guns blazing into offense when we don't know where we're going or what could possibly happen." The other Jimmy said.
"I don't really like this Jimmy." Spongebob said. Jimmy looked at him and shrugged. "I don't like it either, but I'd rather not risk anything for now."
Yeahhhhh I'm pretty sure that was shorter than the average chapter I upload. Sorry about that. I will try my best to hurry and upload the next chapter soon if I'm not busy!
